========================================
Playing Genshin Impact the other day with the highest settings with 60fps.
Turned on realtime info and measured these parameter:
Device temp: <40°
Cpu usage: 20-50%
GPU usage: 70-90%
Screen black out when GPU usage reaches >70% usage. Device temperature is about 38°. To reset - lock screen and let GPU rest then unlock and resume gaming. Unplayable at highest settings.
Tried the settings on medium setting with 30fps. Once the GPU usage reaches a >70% screen will blackout within 1min.
Tried this with lowest settings with 30fps. GPU usage: 40-50% Have not experienced any blackouts using lowest settings. Have been playing with lowest settings since. Not acceptable considering rog 2 is a gaming phone.
*I am aware of the closed thread about screen blackout and the advice that we users are suppose to send the device to sc. However that issue is related to device temp: my issue is GPU usage related. So I'm opening this thread for awareness and discussion.
